Just learn as much as you can for free & then later decide if it's worth pursuing a degree. If you watch some of his other videos, not all professions require degrees, such as computer related and tech stuff, but also a few others. It's also good to take a certificate program if you really want to test the waters, rather than committing to 4 years off the bat. Taking a short skills and trades program is also a good way to secure something that will more likely land you a job. But honestly my advice is to learn as much as you can for free from books and videos. Because basically you will be learning the same thing in University anyways, if you don't like studying it in your free time, you won't study it in University either. Just make sure you don't fall in the trap of just sitting home and rot. You are going to have to get out there and work eventually. So you have to keep that in the back of your mind.

Anyway, if you're not interested in computer engineering, why did you pick that as your major? Do you have skills that work well with it and someone encouraged you to try it or was it just because you didn't have any other ideas? Since you don't like it, I'm guessing you also don't want a career in it. If there's a different career you want to get into, you should pick a major based on that. If you don't have anything in mind, maybe you should take some time to explore your options. College is expensive and time consuming and it's worse if you use loans to pay for it. I think you should be sure of what you want after graduating before you start.

@@manvi4514 I’m trying to switch majors into medical imaging technology (radiography). Environmental science is interesting, but in terms of job prospects you would need at least a masters. It is a broad subject that integrates many disciplines such as geographic informational science, geography, biology, etc. if you want a job with just a bachelors I recommended taking it with geographic informational science where you would have to use ArcMaps. Or with chemistry, green chemistry is something that is needed nowadays. But in terms of the options you mentioned, microbiology is the way to go. Better job prospects than psychology and environmental science if you want to have a job with just a bachelors. I may be a bit biased because ultimately my values lie with just living a simple life. Graduate and just work. If you’re stuck I recommend assessing your values: are you materialistic? Do you care more about security? Do you care more about family? Do you care more about helping people? These are some things I wished I knew before picking a major, so I want you to think carefully upon these things before choosing a major. Ultimately you should be doing what you find interesting and align it with a job that fits your values. For example, I’m changing into MIT from environmental science as even tho environmental science is interesting MIT fits my values of job security and helping people. So list down your values. Even tho you have listed them down, I feel like it would require you to go through University to help you discover yourself a bit more. I did 3 semesters of environmental science but I’m just working full time atm till i get into MIT. It took me 3 semesters to figure out what I really want to do.

4th year here. If you are trying to get a job strait after your bachelors (no masters/PHD) pick a degree that teaches USEABLE SKILLS that are IN DEMAND like computer science, accounting, any specialized engineering, nursing, etc. Avoid anything that is too broad like biology, economics & history. They may sound interesting, but not many people actually become a 'scientist' 'economist' or 'historian'. Lets say you major in economics, when you go to apply for jobs involving any banking/finance/management you will be competing with all the people with more specialized degrees (accounting, finance, business management). PS.. 4 year universities are a trap for kids who don't know their career path. You end up paying 15k a year to fuck around and fail classes until you find what major works for you. When you do figure out your preferred major, it may turn out the school you chose is not suited for it very well for it. If you go to community college first, this give you an opportunity to discover your interests (for MUCH cheaper), then find a 4 year uni that matches your goals. I would also recommend looking into trade school. There is currently an surplus of college grads and a shortage of skilled laborers (because all our parents shove college down our throats like it is the only possible option). These trade schools tend to be cheaper and shorter than college, and many could get you 50k/year off the bat.

Right now, I'm changing my degree from Biology major/Geoscience minor to a Geoscience major (geology concentration)/Biology minor. For me it was never so much a question of the kind of career that I wanted (career in Paleontology FTW, above anything else), but how I was going to get there. The thought process when I initially went Bio major/Geo minor was "you combine biology with geology, you get paleontology!", and since some of my other highest interests are volcanology and to an extent marine biology (especially if it involves sharks), it would be perfect, right? Well, I was half-correct. My problem is that I reversed what my major and minor should have been. Over the past few years, I began noticing more and more that bio major programs were generally geared more towards pharma/med/nursing than they were towards my interests. Heck, they really only started touching on what I was really into when I enrolled in an evolution course, part of which, of course, involved the evolutionary history of life, and by extension paleontology. However, this also meant taking a lot of those courses that were much more geared towards people trying to get into medical fields (Organic Chemistry in particular just gave me nightmares). It became abundantly clear that I needed to get the change done after I finally got into contact with a paleontologist who works for the university, and after listening to what my main interests are (which included a short little discussion about the Mid-Tertiary Ignimbrite Flareup), she suggested that I was more interested in the macro/ecology aspect of biology, like how organisms interact with eachother and their environment, while the majority of what I need would really come from the geosciences. Especially looking at a lot of the courses I need for the Geoscience major, the choice seems clear to me now: -Straight up Paleontology offered in the fall -Stratigraphy to go with it -Igneous Petrology to satisfy my inner volcano nerd -Field Geology to get out there in the world to work on-site Yeah, my semesters are gonna look a lot more exciting for me now, and it's giving me renewed motivation to go on.

I just graduated from senior high school this August, Humanities and Social Sciences as my track, and entered College at the same month. I took biology as my program (out of impulse) hoping it'd be my pre-med but I dropped after two weeks realising I'm not really into it and can't push myself to do something I'm not interested about. I also dropped because of health issues, what studying excessively had brought to me and now I'm really struggling what program I'll take in college. Thank you for this video and I'll come back once I get know what suits best for me.

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in E-Commerce, which involves the fusion of business and IT. During the university application process, I had a strong inclination towards CS/IT despite concerns about the perceived difficulty and my aversion to mathematics. However, upon commencing my degree, I discovered my natural aptitude for IT subjects and realized my lack of enthusiasm for business and accounting subjects. It was a decision I regretted, but I have since shifted my focus towards the IT domain and plan to pursue a Master's degree in CS/IT after completing my current program.

My high school guidance counselor said i was very good at math and very good at sciences, so i should go into engineering because that combines both and will keep my options open as i go through it. WORST advice in my life ever. I did follow their guidance , i hated it , was a extremely difficult and heavy workload degree (we only class that did not get spring break week because too much work), and on the other side the financial rewards were much more limited than business, finance or IT degrees. i ended up going IT route afterwards and did very well, but wish i could redo those 5 years. Fast forward to today, and my son was thinking of which degree to go for, and even today, his high school guidance counsellor said the same thing to him. Thankfully i was able to circumvent that. And guidance counsellors to this day follow the same mold as 35 years ago. Completely useless. This video is far better than any of them, and it would have saved me 5 years of my life and career path.

This video was great Shane! I think one of the biggest problems is that people are told that a Master's degree (in any major) will allow them to start off with a great salary, or allow them to advance at a decent pace. I was in an undergrad Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) program (the institution will remain anonymous) and the previous sentence speaks volumes to my prior experiences. It's a decent field, but it was not my cup of tea. If a Bachelor's was the minimum for a job, I would have been hesitant to leave the program. However, a Master's degree was the minimum for entry-level jobs (some in the field even toyed with the idea of making it a Doctorate lol) and the compensation is pretty low. Your videos have been great and I would not have left the program if it was not for the inspiration in them. You have helped me see the other fields in the market that I never knew about before.

Shane made a good point about finding out he didn't need to do a whole four year BA to join a doctoral program in pharmacy. I think he said elsewhere that he went to an expensive private pharmacy school: maybe the two years he saved at BA level paid for the more expensive DPharm? The same used to be true of American MD and LLB courses, though the level of competition probably means it hasn't been possible in the past 60 or more years. But it might apply in other professions.

Well, listen, my plan is as follows: My passion is researching and writing in history and philosophy. I like researching and thinking and exploring new things and writing and sharing thoughts, so I saw anthropology as perfect for me, and I want to learn more in university and get a PHD in this field. My plan to make money is to work as a graphic designer or start my own business, and this is just for the beginning. If that doesn't work, I have no problem working as a professor at a college. Anyway, my life goal [dream] is to be a famous or simply successful artist{ I make music }, and author / researcher I feel like if I don't study in a major that is related to these things, the unrelated major I chose will make me too busy to do any of the above. This is why I chose anthropology. What do you guys think? And do you have any suggestions? What do you think will suit me better than anthropology? I thought of physics, but I'm not really sure.

Go study business if you want a business, be an anthropologist living a quiet less exciting life, or go write music and pursue drama. That's like 3 wildly different lives

This video really helped but there are people in my life saying that I should not study that hard and ideally drop this for the reasons above.

Same here. Only that im 16, and im really great with school. I work hard, and sometimes i lag behind a little, mostly because im confused of where im going next. I like learning things, and i like teaching people about the things i've learned. Something sparked in middle-school-me while i was tutoring a bunch of my classmates for an upcoming exam. "This makes me happy and im REALLLY good at this" and thus i began high school with one and only one goal in my mind. Now that i only have a year left of high school, that goal seems to have faltered. I still like teaching, and i certainly fancy the idea of earning a Phd, a degree of the highest qualification, in a stream, but what would that stream be? Do i really want to get into academia? (i should probably mention that rather than being a high school teacher, i'd like to be a college professor) and then theres the never-ending questions i.e do i really want to this? (yes) am i just in it for the money? (mostly) Do i really have what it takes? (depends). I keep having the same conversation in my head over and over again, and eventually stop dumbfounded at the question "But what do i want to major in?." I am interested in so many things, but the things that interest me arent something that i really want to teach. Example: Im really into astrology (as every other teenager cause s p a c e), geology and psychology, but i dont fancy teaching those. Biology (specifically, microbiology and human anatomy) and chemistry (Not in the traditional sense, mostly talking about quantam mechanics here) gives me such great joy when i get to educate someone else about it, but learning about them gives me a headache. Any of that make sense? Sorry for the long comment. I just really needed to get all this down somewhere.

I was excited for a sec when it was included in the top 10 careers that are worth it but then you said mentioned degrees that aligned with your lifestyle and i see CS included, but i noticed CE isn't, so i gotta ask, what's the difference between the two regarding lifestyle? Because i thought both provided almost the same scope just with CE having electrical and hardware stuff. Now i really cant pick between the two lol

As long as you are good at teaching yourself new concepts and languages, CE is more flexible. You can do everything that can be done with a CS degree, plus work with hardware. With a CS degree, you are limited to software jobs, which are plenty of course, but CE is more flexible. This is true as long as your CE degree is ABET accredited.

When I partnered on youtube like two decade ago I was excited but then life hit me and I didn't take advantage of my time. Skipping forward - I was passionate about gaming until streaming drained the life out of me. I came in with the desire to stream full time but by the time I hit affiliate on (Tv) I was already burned out and it didn't help that I didn't fully progress so a year or two later the endless hours of talking to the wall didn't help. What did mess me up was taking a break because it hurt my progress. My passion to share my experience with the world on the endless gaming journey took a blow. I don't want to band wagon every single new game, I want to play what I enjoy, finish beating it and move on to the next but society mentality is "new new, I want new! must see new!" and that leads to slow growth or no growth. Leads to more spending in hopes of perfect timing. Now it becomes an investment which isn't always ideal for most chasing the industry feeding into the quantity vs quality.

80% of ppl change major, and change is about 2x. ppl don't do the research, tv or ppl just tell them oh its a good career or someone says follow passion and universe lines up. Usually businesses take years to be profitable! college goers make about 17k a year more. only 27% about 1/4 ppl who go to college work in something tied to their major! How many years to break even on a degree? engineer 2 yrs business 3 years, art is 9 years, phsychology is 11 yrs communications its 5. 5 :00 - before student loans took 20 yrs, now its worse and might take 30 yrs. write interests. ( comp sci newly, human rights funding and volunteering, media, video games, ) strength - energy, research, persistent and weakness : now math out of practice, during building phases focus minded, and at times distracted, starting - yea you reminded me of that one! you can ask even family and friends. what is your pattern! talent is overrated, it can just be exposure at an age and practice. what are your career and lifestyle goals! when retire, where retire (for hijra), savings (for hajj), live . are you a leader who wants to start or are you chill and social. 10 :00 - money does matter, esp. when your mind is on paying rent! what career matches it, like for shane dr. didn't match, too much time studying and some specialities had unstable schedule, so he coulnt' retire and travel early! so we are using logic and being systematic. the 3 ven diagram : Good at, Passion, Pay. What you are good and passionate about can be a side hustle. with work life balance a boring job can work. when you choose, talk to ppl in a job or managers to see what is needed. some may do extra thats not needed. many ppl get criminology degree to be a police officer, many times its not needed. for example some ppl who do pharmacy dont' need a degree, just need to take pre req courses and then you can get into a pharmacy school!

Found out today that Architecture wasn't for me and I don't want to jump into engineering not knowing which kind to begin with in the first place. That said, this video did help me ponder a lot as I am doing three classes plus a design studio. Wish me Luck! Update: cs was the right move. Doing dats science and cybersecurity certificate along with a math minor. I got two years and a half left. Let me know if anyone needs advice.

Good luck! Have you been able to decide what you want to get into?

@@sweekrititiwari3923 yeah currently pursuing a cs degree. It's kind of like Architecture but more math, science, and theoretical.

@@shyjy6241 oh i should have update this comment a while ago. Long story short this degree is awesome but its general. Cs has lots of branches auch as data science, cybersecurity, software engineering, software development, video game desiģn, web development, etc. I love this degree, however, it isn't easy. Unlike architecture its technical and pratical, but like architecture its like designing and theory. Of course, one gets paid higher than the other for rational reasons. Cs involves math but not all the time. You do need calc 2 under your belt and discrete math too when doing the degree. Calc 2 basically determines if you can handle the work load and computations. Though the class i would be more worried about is data structures because this will involve more conceptual programming. I can't say that it will be the same difficulty as i had with that class but just be sure to watch videos about the subject. Still doing the degree and I am doing a data science certificate and cybersecurity certificate. Also to kill more my sleep i am doing a math minor.

I’m thinking of getting into architecture….but the amount of math I gotta study is kinda scary…Wht was ur experience on this….?

@@ayeshaaa1011 you don’t need calc so you should be fine. Geometry tho will be important. Tbh if you do calc (which I highly recommend to see if you might be more than an architect) then you should change degrees. If your still not sure let me know what’s up and I’ll try to help you get you to a direction you might like.

@@TSOTL-0302 Oooo no, actually, I've never put too much thought into that one even though I love learning about science and physics and astronomy. Ig I forgot to mention those because I'm not that great at math and a bit worried about that, but dang, maybe if I get into Biochemistry or end up pursuing one of the other ones I can get better at it Thanks for the idea mate :D

Career and Lifestyle goal: When do I want to retire? Where do I want to retire? How much money is enough? Where do i want to live while I work? What type of jobs do you like? Do you want a leadership position? Do you want a chill job? Do you want you to eventually become an entrepreneur? Do you want a 9-5 job? Do you want to be constantly busy and challenging yourself?
